“Mr. Majchrzak always does an excellent job and is very thorough. I really appreciate this webcast every year.” This comment from a past attendee sums up the overwhelmingly positive feedback for our annual Radiology Coding Update webcast, presented by Jeff Majchrzak. Not only is Jeff’s radiology coding knowledge unsurpassed, but he possesses an incomparable ability to explain complex topics in easy-to-grasp terms.
Are code unbundling and other recurring mistakes putting your payments and compliance at risk?
For 2020 you’ll definitely want to hear Jeff’s take on the many significant changes coming to coding for both diagnostic and interventional radiology. Your facility can’t afford to enter the new year with outdated or incomplete information. The government does not give grace periods when it comes to coding.
